moonlight-android VS Sunshine

I could however play it through Moonlight Deskstop Stream using the mstmc.exe. This way I could just open Steam in Big Picture Mode then launch the game as always. However, once ing game, it has some weird visual glitch when walking in the streets of the city causing some stroboscopic effect in the textures which switch to a whitish washed-off color, and then back to normal darker colors, and then half a second later back to whitish colors, etc.

Just a guess since I don't have any Android devices but it sounds like it could be related to this bug: https://github.com/moonlight-stream/moonlight-android/issues/1108

Seems like you're not alone https://github.com/moonlight-stream/moonlight-android/issues/1161

Moonlight Game Streaming (version 11.0): Play games from your PC on Android

Finished the native Android client of my desktop streamer and latency still sucks. I looked over at Moonlight's code and they have lots of vendor-specific hacks for lowering latency. But I can't just copy that because: 1) it's GPL, 2) I'm doing the decoder initialization purely in Rust so I don't have convenient access to the Java methods.

And the "Moonlight" app on your phone to access your PC: https://github.com/moonlight-stream/moonlight-android

I know little about this, but from reading the description this sounds like a replacement for the "server" side of it (running on the machine where the game is running), but the article is talking about ending support for the client side of it on the Shield (please correct me if I am wrong)

In which case, perhaps a better replacement is something like this: https://github.com/moonlight-stream/moonlight-android

AFAIK the NVFBC patch is no longer required for new Sunshine versions thanks to https://github.com/LizardByte/Sunshine/pull/2471.

However, NVIDIA say that "The NvFBC desktop capture library does not have native Wayland support and does not work with Xwayland" (https://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/565.77/R...), so I guess it's of no use for Wayland users.

Maybe worth mentioning the ppen source server side component as well since it is unclear how long gamestream will continue to work? : https://github.com/LizardByte/Sunshine

Worked like a charm for me in 4k

Something like Sunshine[1], coupled with Moonlight[2]?

RDP as a regular or quick solution is actually really decent in this respect.

Moonlight + Sunshine for a self hosted solution, works with every OS

server: https://github.com/LizardByte/Sunshine/

client: https://github.com/moonlight-stream

You could use sunshine (https://github.com/LizardByte/Sunshine) + moonlight (https://github.com/moonlight-stream/moonlight-qt). To be honest, at least for me, it works better than most of the RDP/VNC stuff.
